Intel is integrating its Intel Iris Pro graphics found in Haswell PC chips into the new Xeon processor E3-1200 product family (code named Crystal Well) for low-end to midrange servers.

Expected to be available later this year, Intel says the combination or Xeon and Iris Pro technology will support rich remote workloads like CAD, 3D rendering, video editing and other complex workflows and will help OEMs to design and distribute dense and energy efficient solutions for the data center.

The integrated graphics subsystem has 40 execution units and 128MB of embedded DRAM. The CPU and the GPU share memory resources.
